Never heard this. Can't tell you 100% that this was never true, but at least on most modern systems (last 5 years) it shouldn't be. EIDE is part of the board chipset, connected through PCI, and there's no reason to connect the two channels differently; just a more complicated chipset design. Use both your channels at will, you should not see a performance difference between them. -- Rodolfo J.
